Websites for festivals

A festival website that gets people off the fence.

The lineup, the food, the tickets, and last year's crowd — presented well enough to turn "maybe" into a drive across the county. From $900, ready before your posters print.

Your event, specifically

Festivals sell an experience, sight unseen.

People decide from their couch whether your weekend is worth their Saturday. The website is the pitch.

01

The couch decision

Before anyone buys a ticket, they scroll: who's playing, what's the food, what does the crowd look like. A Facebook event with a flyer JPEG loses that scroll every time.

Last year's photos sell this year's tickets.

02

The lineup shuffle

Acts get added, times shift, a headliner cancels. A printed poster is wrong the day it's printed — the site is where the current truth lives, and where you point everyone who asks.

One current schedule, everywhere.

03

The vendor pipeline

Food trucks and craft vendors are booked months out, and every inquiry starts with the same questions. Published space pricing and an online application turn that churn into a pipeline.

Complete applications, not phone tag.

Built in

What a festival site gets from me.

Everything on the standard build, built for a single-day sell-out.

Lineup & schedule pages

Photo, bio, set time, and links out — people come to festivals to see the acts, and the site is where they find them. When a lineup change happens, you update once and everyone sees it.

Artist pages with bios Set times & schedule Links to social & music

Vendor & food applications

Space pricing published, application built in, submissions to your inbox complete — food trucks, craft vendors, local businesses who want to be part of it.

Ticket links & pricing

Wired to Eventbrite, Ticketmaster, or your own system — every page pushes people to the buy button, and you see the current sell-through without asking.

Photo galleries

Last year's crowd, the best shots from the stages, vendor rows filled with people — the image of a successful festival sells next year's tickets before word of mouth does.

Announcements & countdown

Lineup drops, weather, gate opens early, a last-minute add — post it once and it's everywhere. The countdown keeps your audience engaged between now and the weekend.

Proof, not promises

Built from a real event site.

My shipped show site is a three-day car show and campout — same bones a festival needs: multi-day schedule, galleries, announcements, and built-in connections to vendors.

Festival website questions

What should a festival website have on it?

The lineup with artist bios and set times, because that's what people scroll first. Pricing, ticketing, and where to buy. Food vendors and what they serve. Venue and parking. Last year's photos — the image of a packed stage and a full crowd sells next year. And how to reach you with questions.

Can I sell tickets on the site?

Yes. The site integrates with Eventbrite, Ticketmaster, or another ticketing system — every page funnels people to the buy button. You can see real-time ticket sales without asking anyone for a report.

What if the lineup changes?

It happens — an artist drops out, a big name gets added. I update the site as soon as you tell me. With the organizer login add-on, you post lineup changes yourself without waiting for me.

Can festival vendors apply through the site?

Yes. Food truck and craft vendor applications are built in on the Full Show Site tier. Applications come to your inbox complete, instead of the "let me call you back" churn of individual inquiries.

Do you work with festivals outside your area?

Yes. I build for organizers nationwide. The site works the same whether your festival is in Oklahoma or anywhere else — tickets, vendors, galleries, and real counts of real people buying tickets and wanting to be part of it.

See it before your festival happens.

I build the real, finished site first — you take it to the team before the balance is due. Tell me your dates and expected attendance, and I'll come back the same day with a real number.
